My article would benefit from this becuase it would help the reader learn more about the science behind adrenaline. Not only could they learn about what it does to your brain but also the first findings of this chemical we produce. It could really connect the adrenaline article better and add more information that could be useful.

Researching and annotating citations for my bibliography process went pretty well. My main topic has a lot of other articles that are similar and talk about the same information, but they are different in other ways. One success was that I found an article that was mainly about the science behind adrenaline, which was very helpful. There are a lot of articles out there that cover all the different sports, and all of them talk about adrenaline so that’s helpful. Overall the process went pretty smoothly, I enjoyed reading these articles as they are something that I like and am intrigued by.
